Abstract

The attitude of users towards privacy issues is an important prerequisite for Internet information security governance. Exploring the influencing factors and configuration paths of privacy fatigue will help researchers understand users' privacy protection attitudes, provide management inspiration for network service providers and policy makers, so as to promote the construction of a safe Internet environment. Based on the 303 sample data collected by the questionnaire, we use the fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to explore the influencing factors and configuration paths of privacy fatigue from the perspective of protection motivation. The results of the study show that there are three conditional configurations that can explain the factors affecting privacy fatigue. Among them, perceived vulnerability and perceived severity are the core conditions that lead to privacy fatigue, while the lack of self efficacy, response efficacy and privacy concern can stimulate the generation of users' privacy fatigue attitude. The study focuses on the perspective of protection motivation to explore the influencing factors of privacy fatigue of social media users, and provides a new interpretation angle for privacy fatigue research.
